Chapter 2: Who Let the Monkeys in The Pirate Raid

(Mimic's workshop)

Mimic was examining something and was looking really excited at the same time. So much, that he didn't even notice Shantae, Donkey Kong, and Diddy Kong enter the workshop.

Mimic- I can't believe it! Just as I was studying about it, one just falls right into my lap like that!

Shantae- Uh…Uncle Mimic…

Mimic- Shantae?!

Mimic almost jumped from his seat when he heard Shantae's voice.

Mimic- Shantae, don't sneak up on me like that! I don't know if my heart can take much more surprises.

Then Diddy Kong saw a shiny black stone on the desk Mimic was standing at.

Diddy Kong- Hey! That's the Tropical Night egg!

Mimic- You know about the Tropical Night? Well, the book I read last night said they were supposed to be from Kongo Jungle. Funny thing too. I was just reading about them in this strange book I recently found and this egg flies through my window.

Donkey Kong- I guess shooting ourselves out of that cannon did help us find the egg, Diddy.

Diddy Kong- At the cost of turning us into Peeping Tom's at Shantae's expense!

Mimic- What…?

Shantae- Trust me, Uncle Mimic! You don't want to know!

Mimic- I take it you two Kongs are here because of this egg?

Donkey Kong- You could say that.

Diddy Kong- DK accidently blew it into the sky while trying to stop K. Rool from swiping it.

Mimic- Guess this means I have to give this back to you? Shame, because I would've liked to study it more.

Shantae- Sorry, Uncle Mimic. But it might be best if they bring it back to Kongo Jungle before King K. Rool realizes it hear in Scuttle Town.

Suddenly before they knew it, a Tinkerbat rushed out of the room with the Tropical Night egg.

Mimic- Was that a Tinkerbat?!

Diddy Kong- And it has the egg!

Shantae- Shit! Of all the times for one of Risky's stupid pirate raids!

Donkey Kong- Let's just get that egg back, before we lose it again!

(At the docks)

Donkey Kong, Shantae, and Diddy Kong arrived at the docks and saw the Tinkerbat jump on a pirate ship and run up to Risky Boots.

Shantae- Risky Boots!

Risky Boots- In the flesh. If it isn't the pain in the ass, Shantae. And I see you brought another one of your ****ed up team mates from that stupid team you've become a part of.

Donkey Kong- Look, just hand over the egg and we won't smash your ship!

Risky Boots- Egg? I thought this was just a rare stone.

Donkey Kong- It's not. It's an egg of one of the most dangerous creatures on Earth. And we went through a lot to find it the first time!

Diddy Kong jumped on Donkey Kong's back.

Diddy Kong- Don't remind me…or Shantae for that matter. Because I think she's still mad at us, DK.

Risky Boots- Really? That does sound interesting. Maybe it could be of use to me once it hatches.

Shantae- You must be crazy if you think we'll just let you leave with that egg.

Risky Boots- If that's how you want it, I can test out my Tinker Tub's new upgrades.

Then Risky's pirate ship transformed into large machine with the ship for the head.

Shantae- The Tinker Tub again? You need to learn not to be a one trick pony. I've smashed that thing more times than I care to count.

Shantae transformed into Elephant Shantae and charged for the Tinker Tub, but some kind of barrier appeared around the Tinker Tub that instantly changed her back to normal form when she came in contact with it.

Risky Boots- Who said I was a one trick pony? I've upgraded the Tinker Tub to neutralize your transformation powers. The real question is what will you to without your transformation spells?

The Tinker Tub fired a cannonball at Shantae, but Shantae was barely able to dodge. She did fall to the ground though. The Tinker Tub was about to move in closer to Shantae, but it suddenly stopped in its tracks.

Risky Boots- What's going on?!

Tinkerbat- The right leg isn't moving.

Then they noticed that Donkey Kong had grabbed hold of the right leg of the Tinker Tub before he tossed the entire Tinker Tub ten feet in the air. The Tinker Tub crash landed a few feet away from behind Donkey Kong while Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong walked over to help Shantae back up.

Donkey Kong- You ok, Shantae?

Shantae- I'm fine, Donkey Kong.

The Tinker Tub got back up, but Risky's crew of Tinkerbats were still shaken up.

Risky Boots- What the **** was that?!

Tinkerbat- That monkey, Donkey Kong, just sent us flying! It's said that there's not too much going on upstairs, but his physical strength is rumored to be herculean! But I think that's an understatement since he flipped the Tinker Tub as casually as flipping a living room table.

Another Tinkerbat- Captain Risky Boots, we're not equipped to take on someone that strong! I must suggest we cut our loses and retreat while we still have the booty!

Risky Boots- Absolutely not! Ever since that half-genie runt joined the Super Mario Brothers' Team, it has been one disaster after another! That blue hedgehog breaks my ribs and jaw, that swordsman from Hyrule stabs me in the stomach, and now I'm being made a monkey by this monkey! I will not let my reputation fall any further! We're making a fur coat out of that gorilla!

Tinkerbat- It's our funeral…

The Tinker Tub opened its mouth and a large cannon came out of it. It fired a huge cannonball at Donkey Kong. Luckily, Donkey Kong caught the large cannonball in his paw and smashed it to dust when he rammed it against his head.

Donkey Kong- Is that all you got? K. Rool fires more powerful cannonballs at me!

Tinkerbat- Shit! He is physically stronger beyond our imagination!

Another Tinkerbat- I think I soiled the deck!

Third Tinkerbat- Captain Risky Boots, perhaps we should consider retreat! The only things worse than taking on this monkey without the right tools is taking on that hedgehog's super form or taking on the wicked god, Tabuu, unprepared.

Risky Boots- We're not retreating! I refuse to lose to anymore members of the Super Mario Brothers' Team!

The Tinker Tub opened its mouth and shot an anchor at Donkey Kong. However, Donkey Kong caught the anchor and began spinning it like how Mario spun Bowser in Super Mario 64. And because the anchor chain was still attached, the Tinker Tub was also being spun around. Donkey Kong eventually chucked the anchor into the air as well as the Tinker Tub for the second time.

Donkey Kong- Diddy, think your barrel rockets pack can get me up there?

Diddy Kong- You know ever since our fight with Tiki Tong that these rockets can literally fly you to the moon.

Diddy Kong turned on his barrel rocket and launched him and Donkey Kong up to the Tinker Tub. Donkey Kong winded up his Monkey Punch and smashed the Tinker Tub to pieces and made it rain Tinkerbats and machine parts. Shortly after, Risky Boots crawled out of the wreckage of the Tinker Tub that landed on the dock and had a blackeye on her face. Before she could do anything, she felt someone tap their finger on her shoulder. When she turned around, she saw Donkey Kong standing behind her and making that big grin of his as he looked down at her.

Risky Boots (in a nervous tone)- Oh my…you certainly are much bigger in person than I was told you were…

Risky Boots slowly tried to walk backwards and away from Donkey Kong, until she felt that she bumped into Shantae standing behind her.

Shantae- Yes, Donkey Kong can be intimidating. Now hand over the egg.

Risky Boots- And why should I listen to you?

Shantae- Let me simplify this for you, Risky. Return the egg you stole and maybe I can convince my friend, DK, to back off.

Then Risky say Donkey Kong hovering over her shoulder, still with that grin on his face and cracking his knuckles.

Donkey Kong- Hi!

Risky Boots almost dropped brinks in her pants when she saw Donkey Kong that close up to her. Diddy Kong was riding on Donkey Kong's back, but he didn't scare her as much. Eventually, Risky Boots hung her head and handed Shantae the Tropical Night egg. Shantae quickly grabbed the egg and Donkey Kong moved away from Risky Boots.

Risky Boots- But I will get both of you shit heads for this humiliating defeat!

Then a smaller boat than her Tinker Tub that was being rowed by a few Tinkerbats arrived to the dock and Risky Boots used it as her escape.

Donkey Kong- Well, we got the Tropical Night egg back and I helped you save Scuttle Town from Risky Boots. Would you say that makes up for the peeking through your window incident?

Shantae glared at Donkey Kong while holding the egg.

Shantae- Not even close, DK.
